False starts

Ever have one of those days? Where you lose your cell phone off your bike and it disappears into the ether? Then you make multiple wrong turns on a 100k ride, because your map was on your cell phone? And over that ride, you get cut off, harassed, and narrowly missed by a truck passing in the safety lane of a divided highway? Wow.

On the plus side, I didn't crash, didn't bonk, and didn't actually get hit by a car. The blackfly bites acquired while searching for my phone will fade. The "aero neck" (i.e. total inability to flex my head forward) will pass.
